Breaking: Man United sells naming rights to Carrington training HQ & training kit sponsorship to Aon. 8-year deal worth around $230M

Someone will be happy. :)

Great news, in that case ours must be incalculable, they really are chasing in our shadow and there must be some major concerns in the football world regarding little old City. All we need to do now is get the media on side.

.



will take another ten years at least.

the media follow the following. the more supporters, the more positive the coverage of your team. its all about selling their chip wrappers

£29m a year for a sign and a few bibs. Fair market value? FFP? Pah!

 

[mancity dan]

£15m a year for the training ground sponsorship. Am so glad that the figures for the Etihad deal haven't been released.

With Financial Fair Play on its way they have to rack up as much sponsorship as possible as do we. Hope we announce some deals in the summer to be honest.

No but when they are released you can be sure they will be investigated!!!

The Etihad deal will go up year-on-year I believe. These will dwarf what the rags are getting.

 

[waspish]

A sponsorship deal that no media outlet is aloud to go near!

I couldn’t agree more Dan, this is what I placed a little earlier in the thread.

Good to see united finding new ways of whoring themselves out. whats the point in selling the naming rights when the media is controlled tighter then the Gostapo HQ..

 

[Swales lives]

Like all Tory governments, they've sold everything they own. The only thing they have got left to flog is the naming rights of the swamp itself. Conversations/meetings must have been had.
How much is the stadium's name worth? Dare they do it for fear of the return of the dreaded Norwich scarf and Love/Hate stickers on lamp posts?

The day is coming, they sold advertising space to AIG to promote their brand on the 50th Munich aircrash anniversary, so selling the swamp's name to Tesco, Barclays or Tata is not inconceivable. Whores sell everything.
